U-Boot has supported two kinds of asm-offsets.h.
One is generic for all architectures and its source is located at
./lib/asm-offsets.c.
The other is SoC specific and its source is under SoC directory.
The problem here is that only boards with SoC directory can use
the asm-offsets infrastructure.
Putting asm-offsets.c right under CPU directory does not work.
Now a new demand is coming. PowerPC folks want to use asm-offsets.
But no PowerPC boards have SoC directory.
It seems inconsistent that some boards add asm-offsets.c to SoC
directoreis and some to CPU directories.
It looks more reasonable to put asm-offsets.c under arch/$(ARCH)/lib.
This commit merges asm-offsets.c under SoC directories into
arch/$(ARCH)/lib/asm-offsets.c.
By the way, I doubt the necessity of some entries in asm-offsets.c.
I am leaving refactoring to the board maintainers.
Please check "TODO" in the comment blocks in
arch/{arm,nds32}/lib/asm-offsets.c.

Add a target for running u-boot as a coreboot payload in boards.cfg, a
board, CPU and a config. This is a skeleton implementation which always
reports the size of memory as 64 MB.

Some ports set up the board info structure at the same time as the global
data structure, and largely keep them together. So generate a define for
the board info struct too.

CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_SIZE has always been just a bad workarond for not
being able to use "sizeof(struct global_data)" in assembler files.
Recent experience has shown that manual synchronization is not
reliable enough. This patch renames CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_SIZE into
GENERATED_GBL_DATA_SIZE which gets automatically generated by the
asm-offsets tool. In the result, all definitions of this value can be
deleted from the board config files. We have to make sure that all
files that reference such data include the new <asm-offsets.h> file.
No other changes have been done yet, but it is obvious that similar
changes / simplifications can be done for other, related macro
definitions as well.

A recurrent issue is that certain C level constructs like sizeof() or
offsetof() cannot be used in assembler files, which is inconvenient
when such constructs are used in the definition of macro names etc.
To avoid duplication of such definitions (and thus another cause of
problems), we adapt the Linux way to automatically generate the
respective definitions from the respective C header files.
In Linux, this is implemented in include/linux/kbuild.h, Kbuild, and
arch/*/kernel/asm-offsets.c; we adapt the code from the Linux v2.6.36
kernel tree.
We also copy the concept of the include/generated/ directory which can
be used to hold other automatically generated files as well.
We start with an architecture-independent lib/asm-offsets.c which
generates include/generated/generic-asm-offsets.h (included by
include/asm-offsets.h, which is what will be referred to in the actual
source code). Later this may be extended by architecture-specific
arch/*/lib/asm-offsets.c files that will generate a
include/generated/asm-offsets.h.
